PAGE 7: FINAL RECOMMENDATION¶

Overall verdict and transfer recommendation¶

OVERALL RATING: 6.62/10¶

RECOMMENDATION: CONDITIONAL BUY¶

PLAYER PROFILE¶

Speed-focused winger with elite pace. Direct style, less technical than typical creative wingers.¶

Best as impact substitute or counter-attacking outlet.¶

BEST FIT¶

  • Counter-attacking teams (fast transitions)
  • Systems: 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1 (wide right)
  • Teams needing pace in behind
  • Not suited for possession-heavy systems

MARKET VALUE¶

  • Current Valuation: $6,500,000
  • Fair Range: $5M - $7M
  • Recommended Offer: $5M - $5.5M (overvalued)

RISK ASSESSMENT¶

  • Age Risk: LOW (25, entering prime)
  • Injury Risk: MEDIUM (high-intensity style)
  • Adaptation Risk: MEDIUM (tactical limitations)
  • Overall Risk: MEDIUM

STRENGTHS SUMMARY¶

  • Elite pace (34.3 km/h top speed) - game-changing
  • Good discipline (3 yellow in 25 games)
  • High work rate (10.15 km per 90)
  • Versatile positioning
  • Decent dribbler (55.4% success)

WEAKNESSES SUMMARY¶

  • Very limited goalscorer (0.18 per 90)
  • Weak aerially (29.7% success)
  • Can be out-muscled physically
  • Poor decision-making (6.2/10)
  • Tactically limited (4.4/10)

FINAL VERDICT¶

One-dimensional winger whose primary asset is exceptional pace. At $6.5M, he's overvalued given tactical limitations and low goal output. Elite speed makes him useful as impact substitute for counter-attacking situations, but lacks the technical quality and tactical intelligence for starting role in possession-based systems.

Recommendation: PASS at current valuation. Consider only if price drops to $5M and team plays direct, counter-attacking style. Better options exist for creative wing play.
